Today's Blind Items--Kindness

So this television actor who makes all the ladies crazy on a very hit show got a new cell a few weeks ago. The new iPhone to be exact. Well it seems our actor had about 10,000 questions for the woman on the phone at the customer service call center who set up his new service. She unfailingly answered them all and kept a smile on her face even when the actor kept taking other calls while talking to her. At one point, the actor needed to go but had more questions so he gave the customer service agent his home number and his wife's number and asked her to please call him in about 30 minutes so they could continue the call. She did and he was even more impressed.

After getting her name and the name of her supervisor, the actor called/not wrote the President of AT&T Wireless to compliment the agent, AND sent her flowers AND sent her strawberries AND sent her strawberries with chocolate all to the call center where she works. As a further bonus he invited her to visit him on the set.

  1. I'm thinking either Patrick Dempsey or Eric Dane from "Grey's Anatomy".

  8. Hugh Laurie is a good guess, since he makes all the ladies on the show crazy.

    why does this even need to be a blind or is this just so people can have a guess?

  10. Probably so we can guess and he can reveal it later. Like hidden easter eggs. We all know where they are but we like hunting for them anyway.

  11. "makes all the ladies crazy" could work both ways -- he could be annoying as all hell or total hotness -- also it could refer to either his character or his real-life person.
    not that I have any guesses beyond what you guys have thrown out there already, but maybe a little more fuel.

  12. True, but I think the phrase, "who makes all the ladies crazy on a very hit show...." really means on the hit show.

  13. I'm thinking McSteamy.

  15. How about the hottie from Lost...the guy who plays Sawyer. He's married.

  16. I'm going with McDreamy!

  17. Lost is filmed in Hawaii, so a visit to the set isn't a very practical perk, Imho

  18. -compared to something filmed in L.A.

    I would think the big clue in here would be "10,000". That's what stuck out for me. Why that #?

  21. dempsey seems a little too nuts to be doing something this nice. then again maybe that's what nuts people do O___O...?

  22. dn, there is that new movie coming out, "10,000 BC" saw a huuuge epic trailer for it the other night. doesn't look like anybody worth mentioning is on the cast though?

  23. This isn't kindness, it's stalking. In a couple of months we'll be seeing another BI about the TV actor and the cell phone rep meeting on the set etc. etc. etc.

  24. It doesn't say where the call center is located, it could be in Hawaii so the Lost set wouldn't be a stretch.Or it was more of an offer than an actual plan to get her there. A gesture, if you will

  25. I thought the rumours were on the negative side concerning Dempsey, but who knows?

    I hope it's Hugh Laurie.

    I luv Hugh Laurie.

    OK, really, I think it's someone from Gray's Anatomy.

  26. I work for the company and know the woman involved. It's Matthew Fox from Lost. The call center is based in L.A. but he said if she was ever in Hawaii to call his manager / agent and he'd set up the visit.

  27. I was going to guess Josh Hollaway, so I was close. Thanks for the info, Mary!

  28. I still think it's Josh Holloway. He's both a gentleman and technologically un-savvy.
